Shannon L. Alder
“Naive people tend to generalize people as�-good, bad, kind, or evil based on their actions. However, even the smartest person in the world is not the wisest or the most spiritual, in all matters. We are all flawed. Maybe, you didn’t know a few of these things about Einstein, but it puts the notion of perfection to rest. Perfection doesn’t exist in anyone. Nor, does a person’s mistakes make them less valuable to the world.

Clarissa Pinkola Estés
“Many women do not even have the basic teaching about predators that a wolf mother gives her pups, such as: if it's threatening and bigger than you, flee; if it's weaker, see what you want to do; if it's sick, leave it alone; if it has quills, poison, fangs, or razor claws, back up and go in the other direction; it it smells nice but is wrapped around metal jaws, walk on by.”
Clarissa Pinkola Estés, Women Who Run With the Wolves

Nguyễn Nhật Ánh
“Bọn cún chúng tôi căn bản là thân thiện với loài người. Loài người yêu thương chúng tôi và chúng tôi đáp lại bằng một tình cảm còn sâu sắc hơn. Tình cảm đó không cần phải học. Nó như một th� bản năng có sẵn trong máu. Thậm chí, tình yêu và lòng tin vô điều kiện đó có th� được coi như một phẩm giá.
Nhưng không phải những gì thuộc v� loài người đều tốt. Lão Hiếng thuộc v� loài người. Nhưng lão không tốt.
Vì th� chúng tôi phải tr� giá cho s� tin cậy của mình. Khi bạn quá tin cậy hoặc sùng bái một ai, chắc chắn bạn không bao gi� đ� phòng, thậm chí nghi ng�. Và đôi khi bạn chết vì niềm tin ngây thơ của mình.”
Nguyễn Nhật Ánh, Tôi Là Bêtô

Anton Chekhov
“Ivanov: A naive man is a fool. But you women are clever enough to be naive so that it comes out in you as engaging and healthy and warm, and not so silly as it might seem. Only why do you all behave like this? While a man is healthy and strong and in good spirits, you pay him no attention, but as soon as he rolls down the slippery slope and starts complaining about his woes, you hang on his neck.”
Anton Chekhov, Ivanov

Karl May
“Ein Greenhorn schleppt der Reinlichkeit wegen einen Waschschwamm von der Größe eines Riesenkürbis und zehn Pfund Seife mit in die Prärie und steckt sich dazu einen Kompass bei, der schon am dritten oder vierten Tag nach allen möglichen Richtungen, aber nie mehr nach Norden zeigt. Ein Greenhorn schreibt sich achthundert Indianerausdrücke auf, und wenn er dem ersten Roten begegnet, merkt er, dass er diese Aufzeichnungen im letzten Briefumschlag mit nach Hause geschickt und dafür den Brief dabehalten hat. Ein Greenhorn kauft Schießpulver, und wenn er den ersten Schuss tun will, erkennt er, dass man ihm gemahlene Holzkohle gegeben hat. Ein Greenhorn hat fünf Jahre lang Astronomie studiert, kann aber ebenso lange den gestirnten Himmel anstarren, ohne zu wissen, wie viel Uhr es ist. Ein Greenhorn steckt das Bowiemesser so in den Gürtel, dass er sich beim Bücken die Klinge in den Schenkel sticht...”
Karl May, Winnetou: Band 1

Drita Çomo
“Kur shoh ca egoistë, me dy faqe, në fund të fundit injorantë, janë ca njerëz, më pushton nje dëshirë e çmendur që të jem vetëm, të mos kem asnjeri pranë, të lexoj, të shkruaj, të dëgjoj muzikë. Po e di që kjo s'më bën mirë, mundohem t'i largoj mendime të tilla, detyrohem të shtirem si naive, ndoshta pak
e lehtë, askujt s'ia marr për keq dhe përpiqem te mos zemërohem për asgjë. Dhe, në fund të fundit, nuk ia kaloj keq.”
Drita Çomo, Dritë që vjen nga humnera
